We are losing primarily because of hurricanes. Not saying we don’t have problems but that combined with the other contributions is why we are losing more than other southern states.
Other Southern states have hurricanes too.
People are leaving because Louisiana has terrible public schools, corrupt politicians, areas with opportunity for work are overrun with crime and now due to the eroding coast its more expensive to live than Mississippi and Alabama.
Higher COL for an equal or worse place to live than surrounding states

Honestly, it’s more than the high flood insurance and lack of job opportunities. Louisiana is just a boring state with no scenery or significant amenities that make people want to live there.
There are other places with high crime, high COL, and lack of job opportunities yet they have an amenity that makes people want to live there. Miami is a perfect example of that
